Server :: New Dovecot Install / User Not Known To The Underlying Authentication Module
Nov 4, 2010
Situation: fresh dovecot install. I have postfix successfully accepting and delivering mail to a virtual mailbox. I'm trying to pop that mailbox, but it can't see it. I hope someone can point out where my config is wrong.
Im using CenOs 5 and have install a mail system(postfix+dovecot),when I trying to enable selinux for enforcing mode and i'm have some issue, the user authentication failed. How can i to fix this problem?
I'm using FC8 and have installed a mailserver(postfix+dovecot),when I trying to enable the selinux mode to enforcing and i'm have some issue, the user authentication failed.if turn the selinux mode to permissive, then it work right.How can i to fix this problem?
I am new to to dovecot and would like some help, so please be kind.I have one user that can send mail but not read it either by pop3 or imap.I am running Dovecot 2.0.11 on Fedora 14.
I have Centos ( and Postfix+ldap+dovecot ) TLS works with Postfix and LDAP. When I open evolution mail client I can browse ldap tree and search for users, send-receive mails ...all fine
When I send an email via TLS I see the following log entries.
Code: Oct 14 11:53:06 ns2 postfix/smtpd[11372]: connect from unknown[172.16.1.159] Oct 14 11:53:06 ns2 postfix/smtpd[11372]: setting up TLS connection from unknown[172.16.1.159] [Code]....
What I'm really curious about is there is an intial TLS connection with a 256 bit cipher, but then.. The last entry states "sasl_method=PLAIN" - so surely this is not encrypted? Or am I misunderstanding how it works?
I'm trying to configure dovecot in RHEL6, but seems system won't accept local user login. I've already disabled pam. I've tried mutt -f imap://xxxx, and Thunderbird to connect as imap and pop3, but both failed, seems dovecot won't accept the password of the login user.the dovecot info log as, Jul 03 20:48:42 imap-login: Info: Disconnected: Too many invalid commands (no auth attempts): rip=192.168.1.3, lip=192.168.1.3, mpid=0, secured
I've been having enormous problems with pam authentication. I use opensuse 11.1, postfix 2.5.5, dovecot 1.1.7. , ssl, dovecot-sasl. Everything works fine within local network, but I can't log in from outside (using outlook express 6). Output of dovecot -n:
I am trying to setup Postfix along with dovecot on RHEL4. I have done the necessary settings in dovecot.conf, yet I am not able to log into the POP3 server. The error I can see through WireShark/Ethereal is "Err- Authentication failed" Some of the important settings in /etc/dovecot.conf are
I just went through a painful upgrade from 8.04 to 10 LTS. I've made a lot of progress but am still having email problems. Dovecot seems to not be able to run, the log is continually reporting:
Aug 22 23:47:34 amd64 postfix/smtpd[22298]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms
I want to Configure Linux LDAP Server for user authentication when my users want to connect to the internet.Also i don't want the user to get the home directory on server. i configured ldap server and ldap client without PAM & SASL.and now with perl i can search in ldap for my client's username & password in ldap.
I checked relay system using IP address it working gr8, but I want to implement user based authorization in relay server. but no idea where to make changes in sendmail.mc.. and my outlook asking for password again and again..whats role of openssl in user based authentication ?
I made a system in CentOS5.5. I used Tomcat6 and PostgreSQL. But I couldn't enter my system. There are some error. And I don't understand what kind of error this. JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions(100) | SQL Error: 0, SQLState: null JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions(101) | Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "postgres") "postgres" is username. Is anybody knows anything about this error message.
My goal is this: Allow a user to connect to a server via SSH with any login name or password without checking to see if that account exists on that server. Their account would be captured by a universal account say, 'generic_user', and then they would be directed to one of my python scripts with the username and password they supplied for initial login. At this point my script would capture their SSHD process ID and allow/deny their existence based upon a MySQL/Subscription check.
The part I'm having trouble with is with PAM and allowing the user to login with any credentials and be successfully authenticated under the generic account. Beyond that, everything is great.
how to make a new Ubuntu 9.10 box use our LDAP/Samba server for user authentication. Our Red Hat and Windows machines all use it just fine. I've been trying to use the auth-client-config and libnss-ldap packages for this purpose, but I must be missing something. I'm pretty green with LDAP, so this is my first time diving in... Is there a good How-To or step-by-step read on this? All of my searches lead me to setting up Ubuntu as the server, and that isn't what I want. I've also tried the steps listed in [URL] for the LDAP Authentication section.
i want to authenticate user (client) via switch to the radius server(CentOS)Can anyone tell me the authentication/authorization configuration that should be made in the switch (huawei) and the radius server(centos).Esp. the main files under /etc/raddb/ in the Server& the configuration to be made under the radius server template "test"( as of my case)...
PAM time restrictions - changing Time.conf so it gets time from a sql table. I was wondering with the PAM authentication module (pam_time) that I can grab time from a server using sql/postgress which uses TIMEDATE function to get the time of logging out into pam_time? So basically I want to insert sql statements into Time.conf which would get the time from a table.
I am having some trouble finding the information i need, here is what i am trying to accomplish.
1. Download POP email messages from cody@clearsky.net.au using fetchmail and assigning them to account "cody"
2. Connect and view the emails via IMAP using dovecot server logging in using "cody"
So far i have the fetchmail part working fine, but i cannot see any emails in the inbox. The messages are going thru however as they are visable in MUTT. i have edited my /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf to change the mail directories, but no luck
I am using RackMonkey to map out my lab. Unfortunately, due to RM limitations, every user who accesses the site has write access UNLESS they are logged in as a user named "guest". I currently have Apache allowing only the users (sysadmins) in an LDAP group access to RM, but I would like to allow read-only access for other users as well.I found mod_authn_anon, but I am having trouble combining the two authentication methods. I am using Apache 2.2.18 (compiled myself) on SLES 11.1.
This is the common part:
Code:
AuthType Basic AuthBasicProvider ldap anon Order allow,deny Allow from all
This part by itself works for the LDAP authentication:
Anonymous guest Anonymous_VerifyEmail Off Anonymous_MustGiveEmail Off Anonymous_LogEmail on Require valid-user
But if I have both of the previous blocks enabled at once, then guest access does not work. If I throw in a "Satisfy any", then I am not prompted for a username at all. How can I allow access to this LDAP group and to a user named "guest", but not allow all valid LDAP users to log in?
I have a problem with ldap client authentication in ubuntu. I am using rhel5 as openldap server and I configured ubuntu as client, when I am trying to login the following message is coming."su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info. Sorry" But when I do search through "ldapsearch" command output is coming without any errors, Can anybody explain what would be problem.
I did a a basic install of postfix and dovecot instead of using courier-pop and courier-imap. This is only send and receiving e-mail locally within the test network 10.7.0.X and 10.0.0.X. I used:

my postfix.conf is;
PHP Code:

This is the error when I send an email from a local machine on the 10.0.0.X network.
PHP Code:

I need to install different version of Perl with needed modules to Test Run a perl script (ASSP) without affecting the existing one as the old version of Perl is buggy with seg fault.
I need to install module u32 into the netfilter module for kernel 2.6.27.
I did not see the source code in the kernel version I have. where can I find the code for U32 module.
I have checked "netfilter.org" and looks like POM is discontinued. Is the u32 module committed to kernel version 2.6.27 or need to patch it. If yes, where can I find the patch?
I am running Fedora 10, Postfix and Dovecot I recently changed the password of a user using the 'passwd' command. The problem is that the user can no longer receive their email messages in Thunderbird (Authentication Error). However, they can still login using SquirrelMail and get their mail.
